I love the sectioned fullsize front end, thats awesome, and steel bumper too.....kudos.

That rocker arm, horizontal rear bag setup is bitchin too.

Is your friend doing this for fun or does he run a shop?

 

Ditto. Coilovers WERE on the list at one point earlier this year. But on the bright side, i'm starting my 2nd job soon (56 hours a week FTW!), so after I buy a cheap daily driver, I might go back to modding the Cobalt. Either that or trading it in.

 

wow, that truck has some serious work in it. Any ideas on what the finished product will be? colors? interior?

 

no idea, hes taking his time to make sure it comes out PERFECT in his eyes. I cant blame him with that amount of work. Hes had a couple setbacks, having to rent a shop because he outgrew the tent garage, job changes, financing, and the guy who was going to build the motor built it then left it outside with no valve covers i believe it was and it rained on it for over a month. Hes getting there tho. I would imagine within the next year it should be driveable. It will be covered in at least 3 magazines as he was saying hes friends with a couple different publishers, and has the backing of acrophobia behind him. his dualie hauler which trailers that truck to meets is also bagged as well and layes rocker. :-)

 

nice. sounds awesome, you should gather up all the photos you have and start a thread on it, i'm sure a lot of us would like to see.

 

a buddy of mine has an S10 with bags and has an escalade front end, with a V6 supercharged arka (spelling?) motor, 22s in the back and 20s up front, and lays in on the frame
ill try and find some pics for you guys.

 

eyup

 

damn the rim is about to touch the finder or already is! lol
i think that counts as slammed

 

Theres sooooooo many cars like this (stance wise) in my area. At the College Park Tuning show, there was countless VW's, Hondas and VIP style cars rocking stretched tires, epic negative camber and SLAMMED stances. Impractical? Yes. But who cares, it looks dooooppppe!!!!

 

yea they look dope dropped, but i HATE it when you have too much neg camber. i like a lil...
maybe a little more then in that pic, and thats all i can handle.
and the streached tire looks good, untill your behind the car and can see that little lip of the rim... IMO that looks ugly, from behind

 

Yeah, its not for everyone. But I def dig it. I'm contemplating selling my SS if I can't get a daily driver soon. The Cobalt is at 60k now, and if I can't park it soon, then I don't feel like wasting any more money on it. But if I do sell it.......well, i'm not gonna give away any details.....but lets just say....."Project Watermelon". Trust me.....the most unexpected car out there.....

 

your SS looks so good dont sell it. its so sexy. lol. get an old ass honda accord for a DD
and "project watermelon"? im scared. haha. i have no idea what it could be.
a red minivan?

 

veedub bus?

 

 

Yeah, but i've had it for almost 3 years. I might hold on to it.......we'll see.

And so far no one is even close with the guesses

 

he does it purely for his own pleasure, although he knows his stuff so if anyone in the area wants stuff done he usually hooks them up for pretty cheap. he did my friends mazda truck on bags for 1,000 bucks. thats pretty cheap for the level of work that he holds himself to

i could do that, its just the work thats acomplished is kinda far and between that it wouldnt be updated too too much. idk what do you guys think?

 

I wanna see it.

 

Thats what she said. Zing!!!

 

lolz. Wanted to feel it too.

 

jesus dude. what kind of car is that

 

Haha worrrrrd.

Well I pulled it from a TSX forum, but this was the only pic, so i'm not 100% sure.

And if you've never seen something like this, then you sir have been sheltered from the sport compact tuning scene. Epic tire stretching and hella slammed stances have been a big thing down here in VA for quite some time now.

 

sucks, the fad up here right now is hillbilly trucks. lifted like 83 chevys with more rust than lift. what the hell...

 

that black car looks like an s2000

 

My ride not "slammed" slammed but as far as my coilovers will let me go







And my boy Milt Taking Equips to another level!

 

^^^ both cars =sex
